‘WPT BPO Championship’
Level 14 (1,200/2,400/400)
Total Entries: 1,179
Players Remaining: 261
Chip Average: 135,500
We featured a few players earlier today who were looking to spin up a 30,000 stack after entering at the start of Day 2. There were a fair amount of players who started their day below that total and have since entered the spin cycle.
Dan Sewnig was under the 30,000 starting stack as recently as the last break but has caught heat over the last few levels and is now near 125,000 as a result. The New Jersey online pro earned his largest career cash earlier in the 2016 Borgata Poker Open when he finished fourth in the Six-Max event for a $27,000 score. Sewnig cashed in the Summer Poker Open Championship and is going for back-to-back BPO Main Event cashes.
Jesse Sylvia started the today below 25,000 and is now trending toward 220,000 in the last level before the dinner break. The 2012 World Series of Poker Main Event runner-up cashed in the 2014 WPT World Championship held at Borgata and is on his way to another cash here if he continues to chip up at this rate.
